A moving car backs into a parked car in a parking lot. Why would the bumpers on both cars be dented?

Is this statement true or false? Electric currents flow easily through materials that are conductors and through materials that

Alex777 [14]

False because currents do not flow easily through insulators. If it only said conductors, then it would be true.

Scientists want to place a 3400.0 kg satellite in orbit around Mars. They plan to have the satellite orbit at a speed of 2480.0

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Part a)

$r = 6.96 \times 10^6 m$

Part b)

$F_g = 3.004 \times 10^3 N$

Part c)

$a = 0.88 m/s^2$

Part d)

$v = \frac{2480}{2} = 1240 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the orbital speed of the satellite is given as

$v = 2480 m/s$

now we will have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{mars}}{r}}$

now we have

$M_{mars} = 6.4191 \times 10^{23} kg$

$R_{mars} = 3.397 \times 10^6 m$

now we have

$2480 = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(6.4191 \times 10^{23})}{r}}$

$r = 6.96 \times 10^6 m$

Part b)

Here force between mars and satellite is the gravitational attraction force which is given as

$F_g = \frac{GM_{mars} m}{r^2}$

$F_g = \frac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})(6.4191 \times 10^{23})(3400)}{(6.96\times 10^6)^2}$

$F_g = 3.004 \times 10^3 N$

Part c)

Acceleration of satellite is the ratio of gravitational force and mass of the satellite

$a = \frac{F_g}{m}$

$a = \frac{3004}{3400}$

$a = 0.88 m/s^2$

Part d)

As we know by III law of kepler

$\frac{T_1^2}{T_2^2} = \frac{r_1^3}{r_2^3}$

here we know that T2 = 8 T1

$(\frac{1}{8})^2= \frac{r_1^3}{r_2^3}$

$\frac{r_1}{r_2} = (\frac{1}{2})^2$

so we have

$r_2 = 4r_1$

as we know that speed is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

so we can say since radius is orbit becomes 4 times so the orbital speed must be half

$v = \frac{2480}{2} = 1240 m/s$

A graduate student is trying to follow the weather on Jupiter for her PhD thesis. To see the big weather patterns in the upper a

DaniilM [7]

Answer: large reflector located in orbit above the Earth's atmosphere

Explanation:

Since the student wants to see the big weather patterns in the upper atmosphere of the planet, and she will therefore need to have excellent resolution, the type of telescope that is ideal for her to use is a large reflector located in orbit above the Earth's atmosphere.

It should be noted that the refractor or a radio telescope isn't ideal in this situation as they will not capture the bug weather pattern and doesn't have an excellent resolution like the large reflector.

With what average speed must you drive your car if your average speed for the entire 23 km is to be 25 km/h?

aksik [14]

Answer:

25km/h

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the average speed in this case does not really depend on calculation or extrapolation, it just refers to an event that is yet to occur,

In other words, if you want to achieve an average speed of 25km/h for 23km, then you should drive your car at a constant speed of 25km/h, any variation in speed may cause a change in your average speed at the end.
